Have you heard the expression WOOT and wonder what does it mean?
The meaning of Woot explained...
Woot originated as a hacker term for root (or administrative) access to a computer. It also coincides with the gamer term, "w00t".
"w00t" was originally a truncated expression common among players of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop role-playing game for "Wow, loot!" Thus the term passed into the net-culture where it thrived in video game communities and lost its original meaning and is used simply as a term of excitement.
Current urban culture uses woot as an interjection similar to "YAYE!" or "Woohoo!" used to express joy or excitement, usually about some kind of accomplishment.
Now you know!
